Chapter 18.4, Problem 18.4PSP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Balanced nuclear equation for beta emission of strontium-90 has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

Balanced nuclear equation is the one where the mass number balance and atomic number balance are equal on both sides of the equation.

Beta emission results in increase of atomic number by 1 and there is no change in mass number of the parent nucleus.  Beta particle is an electron and it is represented as e-10.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Number of half-lives and years that is necessary for the strontium-90 sample to reduce to emission from 2000 β particles per minute to 125 β particles per minute has to be calculated.
